Guest guest Posted August 12, 2005 Report Share Posted August 12, 2005 This is somewhat off topic but in the same realm...If a water main breaks they tell you to boil the water before you drink it but it is ok to bathe in. Don't the germs get on your skin and enter through the pores just like some of the oils and essentials or am I just learning to much.

Guest guest Posted August 12, 2005 Report Share Posted August 12, 2005 Kat, I would imagine that the boil water alert would be for any typ eof consumption...which you are correct about the body taking it in through the pores. i wouldn't chance it, you never know what type of microbes are hangiong out in the water...BTW, do you live in MI? We had a water main alert in one of the counties north of me... tavi > " RICHARD L HOHLER " <kat964 > > >Re: Now water main break / Using Only " Food " On >The Body >Thu, 11 Aug 2005 22:48:38 -0400 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 12, 2005 Report Share Posted August 12, 2005 Kat, Most elements don't just " enter " the pores of your skin. After all, the skin is our body's protective barrier against the " stuff " around us. Something must be " transdermal " to go through unbroken skin; and I've never heard of water being described as transdermal. HTH...

Guest guest Posted August 15, 2005 Report Share Posted August 15, 2005 No, I live in Ohio and a town north of here had the water main break. We have a well that is well over 100 feet underground.
